Portfolio and Investment Activity

During the second quarter of 2013, we invested $28.9 million in new portfolio investments and received proceeds from redemption and repayments of portfolio securities totaling $49.9 million.

On June 28, 2013, Resaca Exploitation, Inc. ("Resaca") completed the sale of substantially all of its oil and gas properties to Legacy Reserves Operating LP, a Midland, Texas-based oil and gas company, for $72 million, subject to customary adjustments. In connection with the sale, we received a cash payment of $16.1 million, representing full principal payment of our Senior Unsecured Term Loan and an interest "make whole" provision of $2.2 million, or $0.11 per share. Subsequently, Resaca's common stock, of which we own 1.36 million shares, or 6.6% of Resaca's common stock outstanding, has been delisted from the Alternative Investment Market of the London Stock Exchange, and will ultimately be liquidated to shareholders as Resaca winds up its operations. Our investment in the Resaca Term Loan resulted in an internal rate of return of 21.2% and a return on investment of 1.61x.

On June 14, 2013, Castex Energy Development Fund, LP ("CDF") repaid its $55.0 million debt obligation under its Senior Secured Term Loan, including the $27.5 million face amount that we held, and including an interest "make whole" provision to us of $0.3 million, or $0.01 per share. CDF also repurchased the Class B LP units, resulting in net proceeds to us of $1.8 million, and a realized capital gain of $1.8 million, or $0.08 per share. This investment was outstanding for 22 months and generated an internal rate of return of 17.8% and a return on investment of 1.3x.

On May 24, 2013, we closed a $15.0 million Senior Secured Term Loan to a subsidiary of Crossroads Energy Partners, LLC ("Crossroads"), a Houston-based oil and gas company, with initial availability of $11.0 million and initial funding of $9.0 million. Proceeds from the Senior Secured Term Loan were used to acquire a 100% working interest in certain producing oil properties located in Central Louisiana and for the development of such properties. The Crossroads Senior Secured Term Loan earns interest at an annual rate of 11.5% (LIBOR + 10.5%) and matures in May 2016. As consideration for providing the Term Loan, we also received a 2% overriding royalty interest in the properties and penny warrants to purchase up to 18% of the operating subsidiary.

On April 22, 2013, we provided $17.5 million of financing to Nekoosa Coated Products ("Nekoosa"), a private manufacturer of carbonless sheets and specialty products used in the commercial printing industry, in the form of a Second Lien Term Loan, to facilitate the acquisition of IGI Corp., a leading manufacturer of specialty pressure sensitive graphic arts materials used in the signage and visual communications industry. The Second Lien Term Loan earns interest payable in cash at an annual rate of 13% plus paid-in-kind interest of 2% per annum and matures on October 22, 2018.

We have continued to receive our share of monthly production payments from ATP Oil & Gas Corporation ("ATP"), pursuant to our limited-term overriding royalty interests (the "ORRIs") in ATP's Gomez and Telemark offshore oil and gas properties, in accordance with the Bankruptcy Court's order and subject to a Disgorgement Agreement executed in August 2012, shortly after ATP filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. Operations and production ceased on the Gomez properties on April 30, 2013, as a result of an order issued on behalf of the U.S. Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement. As of June 30, 2013, our unrecovered investment in the ORRIs was $30.0 million, and we had received aggregate production payments of $20.0 million subject to the Disgorgement Agreement, $4.9 million of which was received during the second quarter of 2013. Of the $11.1 million of ORRI distribution we received during the first six months of 2013, $4.6 million was attributable to Gomez production and $6.5 million was attributable to Telemark production.

On May 7, 2013, ATP conducted an auction of its assets and selected a credit bid that did not include an offer to purchase the Gomez properties. On July 9, 2013, the Court entered its interim order approving the sale of ATP's assets on an interim basis, subject to a final hearing at which the Court will consider evidence relating to the approval of the proposed purchaser.

Operating Results

Investment income totaled $9.6 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2013, increasing 81% compared to $5.3 million in the corresponding quarter of 2012, primarily attributable to "make whole" interest earned from the early repayments of loans from CDF and Resaca totaling $2.5 million, and as a result of higher overall portfolio balances offset by lower weighted average yields.

Operating expenses for the second quarter of 2013 were $4.1 million, increasing $1.5 million, or 55%, compared to the second quarter of 2012, primarily as a result of higher interest expenses on increased borrowings to support our larger investment portfolio and higher base management fees on higher total asset balances. In addition, management and incentive fees included investment income incentive fees of $0.4 million in the second quarter of 2013, as a result of our net investment income exceeding the quarterly hurdle rate of 2% in the quarter. The resulting net investment income was $5.5 million, or $0.26 per share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2013, compared to $2.6 million, or $0.12 per share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2012. 

We recognized net realized capital gains of $1.1 million, or $0.05 per share, during the three months ended June 30, 2013. The realized gain in 2013 resulted from a $1.8 million gain from the sale of our Class B LP units of CDF, partially offset by a $0.2 million loss on the disposition of our Resaca warrants and a $0.5 million loss resulting from adjustments to the realized amounts recorded on our 2011 sales of our investments in Alden Resources, LLC and DeanLake Operator, LLC. We did not realize any significant gains or losses on investments during the three months ended June 30, 2012.

During the three months ended June 30, 2013, we recorded $3.0 million, or $0.15 per share, of net unrealized depreciation on portfolio investments, primarily due to decreases in the estimated fair value of our investments in Spirit Resources, LLC preferred units of $1.6 million, Midstates Petroleum Company ("Midstates") Senior Unsecured Notes of $1.4 million, Talos Production, LLC Senior Unsecured Notes of $0.9 million and net increases in remaining investments of $0.9 million. During the three months ended June 30, 2012, we recorded net unrealized depreciation on portfolio investments totaling $1.5 million, largely due to decreases in the estimated fair value of our investments in Black Pool Energy Partners, LLC ("Black Pool") of $2.0 million and Globe BG, LLC ("Globe") of $0.9 million, partially offset by increases in the values of our investments in CDF of $1.1 million and EP Energy of $0.9 million. Net decreases in the estimated fair value of remaining investments totaled $0.6 million.

In May 2013, we repurchased an aggregate of 520,889 shares of our common stock in the open market at an average price of $6.49 per share, totaling $3.4 million. These repurchases were made at an approximate discount to net asset value of 28%. By comparison, in May 2012, we repurchased an aggregate of 250,029 shares of our common stock at an average price of $6.51 per share, totaling $1.6 million. Under the terms of our stock repurchase plan, we are authorized to repurchase up to an additional $2.4 million of our common stock.

Overall, we had a net increase in net assets resulting from operations of $3.5 million, or $0.16 per share, for the three months ended June 30, 2013. Our stock repurchase activity had a $0.08 per share positive impact on net asset value and, after declaring dividends during the period of $0.16 per common share, our net asset value increased from $9.05 per common share as of March 31, 2013 to $9.13 per common share as of June 30, 2013.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At June 30, 2013, we had cash and cash equivalents totaling $49.2 million. The amount outstanding under our Investment Facility at June 30, 2013 was $72.0 million and there was no additional amount available for borrowing. We repaid $44.0 million of the $72.0 million balance outstanding under the Investment Facility in July 2013. The amount outstanding under our Treasury Facility at June 30, 2013 was $45.0 million and there was no additional amount available for borrowing. We repaid the entire balance outstanding under the Treasury Facility in July 2013.
